Hi,
I have a 99' Volvo V70r which as an hybrid turbo but sadly it blew a valve and it also had an oil leak. I've brought it after my dad died as we had one when I was a kid, I also wanted to get it on track as these cars ruled touring cars in the 90's.
I've brought 90% the parts (need timing belt n head bolts) for the car. The main problem I have is the upper sump gasket is worn and causing the oil leak, sadly the whole engine needs to come out to put a new liquid gasket on.
my local garage told me it would cost upwards of £800 to do. Sadly I am currently unemployed so can't afford that much, I would do the work myself but due to my disability it really isnt possible.
I wanted to see if you guys could help me please as I really want to get the car back up and running in memory of my dad.
Cheers
Ed
